On Friday, Jan. 20, Donald Trump will be sworn in as the 45th president of the United States. If you’re not ready for the celebration just yet, have no fear—there are plenty of events planned for Jan. 19 that may help ease you into the inauguration mood.
The first event to take place on Thursday will be “The Voices of the People” celebratory march—not to be confused with the various protest marches scheduled for Saturday, Jan. 21—at the Lincoln Memorial in D.C. The event is slated to begin at approximately 10:35 a.m. ET.
Following the march, there will be a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery at 2:30 p.m. ET.
And, last but not least—until the inauguration, that is—there will be the “Make America Great Again! Welcome Celebration Concert.”

The concert, scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. ET and last two hours, has caused a great deal of buzz, thanks both to performers who have confirmed and rejected Trump’s invitation.
